Let's start with the given expressions for \( C \) and \( D \):
- \( C = r + 7 \)
- \( D = -2r + 3 \)
We need to find the expression that equals \( 2C - D \).
Step 1: Substitute values for \( C \) and \( D \)
\[
2C - D = 2(r + 7) - (-2r + 3)
\]
Step 2: Distribute
Distributing in the expression, we get:
\[
2(r + 7) = 2r + 14
\]
And the second part becomes:
\[
Step 3: Combine the expressions
Now substituting back into the equation:
\[
2C - D = (2r + 14) + (2r - 3)
\]
Step 4: Simplify
Combine like terms:
\[
= 2r + 14 + 2r - 3
\]
\[
= (2r + 2r) + (14 - 3)
\]
\[
= 4r + 11
\]
Thus, the expression \( 2C - D \) in standard form is:
\[
\boxed{4r + 11}
\]
